💄 AKAI AX73 x Electra One💄 🎧 (no talking) 🎧


video upload by Cutoff Frequency - gear demos (no talking)

"This is a video demonstrating the sounds of the AKAI AX73.

I have this synth for many years now, but only recently it has completely opened up to me using the Electra One with the Tauntek firmware. This gives me all the controls at my fingertips instead of the single slider on the AX73. Sometimes the interface of a device simply hampers you in your creative process and then you don't use it that often. The AX73 is a phenomenal synth and totally underappreciated. I love the quirkiness and character of this synth. It is a beast of its own.

Thanks my love for playing so beautifully."

Akai AX80 8 Voice Analog Poly W/ Original Case & Custom Wood Sides

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.


via this listing

"This is an all analog poly synth. Usually compared to the Juno 106 and Chroma Polaris but is actually a lot more powerful. This thing not only has 3 egs but actually has FOUR lfos. Insane for a poly synth from the 80s. Comes with the original road case, custom wood end cheeks I paid $150 for, and a replacement battery and removable battery holder I just ordered."

ESK - 9x Syntrx Soundscape


video upload by Metunar

"A noisy wild soundscape improvised with 8 recorded and looped Erica Synths Syntrx tracks, played from the Akai MPC X and a live played and looped Syntrx track.
I used a lot of the Syntrx ringmodulation together with an external functiongenerator (Trio AG-203). With mastering.

Akai AX60 Vintage Analog Synthesizer

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.


via this listing

"Up for adoption and looking for a new home: One Akai AX60 Analog Synthesizer - 80's goodness included!

These are truly unique sounding - VCO's give it classic analog warmth but the filter is brash and metallic sounding (with resonance that can kill small animals.) - It has a very Juno 106ish chorus (minus the surf sound feature) and some useful tricks like an arp and mono/osc stack mode. Also in the strange and wonderful category is the ability to process select Akai samplers through these juicy filters with some potentially unobtainable multipin cable (that function I can not verify.)

The good: Everything works. It stays in tune and sounds delicious. MIDI and all functions tested and performing as advertised. All keys trigger and the buttons don't require any additional mashing.

The bad: It has one replacement fader that doesn't quite match the others and one of the display overlays (for waveform selection) is indented (probably a 5 minute fix for somebody brave enough to wrench on it, but that's not me.)

The ugly: Surface scratches but overall decent cosmetics - keys aren't yellow and all the lights light up. Somebody (for an unknown reason) stuck a sweet vintage "Boss Sound Innovator" sticker on it. It's period correct so I left it."

One Synth Challenge: A Full Trance Track using only Prophet Rev2 and MPC One.


video upload by Just Hardware Sound

"I challenged myself to create a full trance track using only one synth. Every sound you hear was created on the Sequential Prophet Rev2, except for the 909 drums. Some sounds are live from the Rev2, while other sounds are multisamples of the Rev2, sampled on the MPC One.

I'm currently working on a soundset for the Prophet Rev2, which will later be released at: justhardwaresound.com"

Track: Waves (Yamaha EX5, PEAK, MPC One, Guitar, Vocals) #retrowave #synthpop #chillwave


video upload by Floyd Steinberg

"Here's some music that I consider to be a good use of #synthesizers . Guitar by @XavierRadix , Vocals by Zaeli ( https://www.fiverr.com/elisabank ). No gear reviews, no talking, just music. ;-)
This started as an exercise to get the filters just right on an EX5 patch, and quickly evolved into this. Bass is from Novation Peak, MPC One is used as a sequencer and drum computer.

4/26/24 (UP) Chopin’s “Nocturne Op. 9, no. 2” + Akai ME20A + Roland Jupiter 6 & RE-301 + Midiverb II


video upload by Cfpp0

"The Roland Jupiter 6 is in UNISON mode. YLF plays the left hand of Frédéric Chopin’s “Nocturne in E-flat major, Op. 9, no. 2” as chords into the ME20A, with the playback pattern set to UP, which results in a recognizable arpeggio.

(YLF #7, Alesis Midiverb II #49)"

4/24/24 (YLF 4, Op. 9, no. 2) Roland Jupiter 6 & RE-301 + Akai ME20A + Alesis Midiverb II


video upload by Cfpp0

"The left hand of Frédéric Chopin’s “Nocturne in E-flat major, Op. 9, no. 2” is translated into a sequence by the Akai ME20A MIDI sequence arpeggiator and played back on the Roland Jupiter 6 (cross modulation). The Jupiter 6 audio output goes into the Alesis Midiverb II, with the input overloading. Tape echo from the Roland RE-301 is applied on the Mackie Onyx 1640 mixer."

4/26/24 Chopin’s “Nocturne in E-flat major, Op. 9, no. 2” according to Akai ME20A & Roland Jupiter 6


"YLF plays the left hand of Frédéric Chopin’s 'Nocturne in E-flat major, Op. 9, no. 2' again, but this time as chords, which the Akai ME20A translates into a Bach-icized sequence. The Roland Jupiter 6 is in SOLO mode first, until it is switched to POLY-1 at 1:17, with some wiggling of filter cutoff and resonance, and the sustain and release on envelope 2, throughout the video, particularly towards the end.

(YLF #6, Alesis Midiverb II #46)"

I Saw Tooth


video upload by Kaffimusic

"This is a video I have made for a live music video 'challenge' at the German synth forum sequencer.de. I won with that. But there was nothing to win but experience and honor.
The center of this setup is the MPC One. It plays just midi pattern that I composed beforehand for the GS Music E7, the small Roland and the Novation Peak. The Kurzweil is not controlled, but the E7 runs through the audio ins and is used as a FX processor with delay and reverb for the E7. The PC4 is just played with internal sounds here. Switches and sliders are either set to control internals, the E7 or the fx. I progammed a multi that is able to play the sounds via switch and control the fx as well.
The last pattern is a respectfully stolen melody of Ehsan Gelsi. The whole style of this live sequencing is the technique he shows in his videos."
